Arden Realty, led by Chairman and CEO Richard Ziman, has amassed the largest commercial real estate portfolio in Southern California. Despite its extensive portfolio, Arden holds no property in the burgeoning downtown Los Angeles market. TPR is pleased to present this interview with Richard Ziman in which he discusses recent trends in commercial real estate in Southern California and why Arden has stayed away from downtown. Ziman also addresses the priorities and objectives for the recently endowed Ziman Center for Real Estate at the Anderson School of Business at UCLA.
